When validating systems that use headphones to synthesize virtual sound sources, a direct
comparison between virtual and real sources is sometimes needed. This paper considers the
passive influence of headphones on the sound transmission and percep... Read More about The influence of headphones on the localization of external loudspeaker sources.

The acuity of colouration perception using non-individualised dynamic binaural synthesis
Presentation / Conference
Satongar, D., Lam, Y., & Pike, C. The acuity of colouration perception using non-individualised dynamic binaural synthesis. Presented at 22nd International Congress on Sound and Vibration (ICSV22), Florence, Italy

Spectral inaccuracies in binaural synthesis caused by factors such as non-individualised HRTFs and headphone compensation filters can induce colouration artifacts; changing the perception of an intended auditory event. Detection thresholds for induce... Read More about The acuity of colouration perception using non-individualised dynamic binaural synthesis.

Simulation and analysis of spatial audio reproduction and listening area effects
Thesis
Satongar, D. Simulation and analysis of spatial audio reproduction and listening area effects. (Thesis). University of Salford

Loudspeaker-based spatial audio systems are often designed with the aim to create an auditory event or scene to a listener positioned in the optimal listening position. However, in real-world domestic listening environments, listeners can be distribu... Read More about Simulation and analysis of spatial audio reproduction and listening area effects.
